Ho ho who the hell is Harry Potter?! While Andy and Dave take a well-deserved Christmas break, Friendly? transforms into a realm of magic, mayhem, and decidedly adult humour. This isn't your grandma's D&D session.

Join us for a one-of-a-kind, listener-driven RPG adventure: Sexy Battle Wizards! Our crack team of Patreon members (and a few questionable characters) must navigate a perilous dungeon, overcome bizarre obstacles, and ultimately destroy the nefarious Automatron Wizard Robot.

Prepare for:

• Wizardly Wackiness: Expect outrageous spells, questionable tactics, and plenty of magical mishaps.
• Adult Humor and Innuendo: This isn't for the faint of heart (or those easily offended). Prepare for mature language, suggestive themes, and jokes that might make you blush.
• Listener Participation: Our Patreon members take the lead as they create their own unique wizard characters and drive the story forward.
• A Hilarious Holiday Hijinks: This Christmas, we're trading survival horror for magical mayhem and delivering a festive treat that's definitely not suitable for children.

DISCLAIMER: This episode contains strong language, adult themes, and suggestive content that may not be suitable for all listeners. Listener discretion is strongly advised. If you're easily offended or listening with children present, we recommend skipping this episode.

So, grab your spellbooks, charge your wands, and prepare for a night of magical madness with the Sexy Battle Wizards! It's a Christmas special you won't soon forget (or perhaps, desperately try to).
